Kanye West just tweeted in support of Bill Cosby, and people are angry

In December, Cosby was charged with a ggravated indecent assault, a first-degree felony, following an investigation of a sexual assault alleged to have happened more than a decade ago. The charge came after dozens of women stepped forward with alarmingly similar stories of assaults allegedly committed by Cosby. Over the summer, New York Magazine ran an in-depth feature on the stories of 35 of Cosby's alleged victims. You can read their stories here.

This isn't the first time West's Twitter antics have drawn ire. At the end of January, the artist fired off a heated tweetstorm directed at Wiz Khalifa. Many of those tweets have since been deleted and it's likely that West will also delete this tweet (which is why we've included a screenshot, rather than embedding West's tweet in this post).

For now, here's the latest from Wests's Twitter. He followed the Pro-Cosby tweet with a much more innocuous tweet about LeBron James and Nike.
